This just in: RWW reports that Pivotal Labs (which VentureBeat describes as a "quiet but impressive group of big-gun, for-hire developers.") has been hired to "fix twitter". Curious about Pivotal, I went to their site. Turns out they are a Ruby/Rails oriented group with background in Java and Smalltalk. They also have the "Pivotal Social Media Platform" socialicious which is what they are using to power most of their consulting gigs, apparently. Now that's interesting - a consulting firm that apparently retains their IP to resusable code they wrote? Weird.
